First question -
I have 4 adult Axolotls, I posted a picture of them. Someone had babies. I'm not sure who. I thought mom might have been my wild color axol because all the eggs were dark and they hatched pretty dark too but still clear. The babies are a few days shy of 1 month old and they are less dark than before.

Second question -
I've been feeding them brine shrimp and daphnia twice a day. Today, when I did the water change, I noticed a lot of the brine shrimp from breakfast were still there. When should I cut meals back to once a day?

The babies all look leucistic to me. Very cute! You'd probably be fine to cut back feeding to once a day if so much food is being left uneaten.

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
